Praying God’s Love on Your Husband

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;

Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. …

Jesus is Risen! Hope for Today

This Easter, may you marvel at the amazing love that God has for you. He sent Jesus into the world to pay the price for your sins, so that you could live with Him forever. Jesus died on the cross, taking your sins upon Himself. He was buried.
After three days, Jesus rose from the grave.
He now sits at the right hand of God speaking on your behalf. 

May you rejoice and bask in the warmth of 
God’s amazing love for you.

Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.” Matthew 26:26-29
